You like the way the iPad looks right? I mean, who doesn’t. Now, imagine you can make your iPhone/iPod look like that. Yeah, it’s possible. Only bad thing is it requires a jailbreak (I recommend Blackra1n).
Basically, all you need to do is download the following from Cydia:
- Winterboard
- Simple iPad Theme
- MakeItMine
- Shrink
- ProSwitcher
And then these from the App Store:
- NYTimes
- Classics
- Kindle for iPhone
The video embedded below will walk you through it. I’ve done this to my iPod Touch and I’m really happy with it.

Don’t worry, I immediately recognized your name and understood it was a joke. The troll much comment was for other people who didn’t understand you were joking.

It does make it look almost exactly like the iPad; I just can’t justify the hassle of buying it though.

Fair enough. My iPod will just look better than yours :p.

Aesthetically, it makes all the difference. Functionally, it does absolutely nothing. But if you really want to pull off that iPad look, drop the $1 as it probably is the most convincing part of the entire mod (if you can call it that).

I didn’t even bother with Shrink.

Just did this on my iPod Touch and it looks fantastic! Super simple yet elegant theme.
Total cost: $1 (For the Shrink app)
Total Value: $500 (Lowest priced iPad)
Is it worth it?: *HELL* Yeah
